Files Menu

Files containing keypad macro sets (a macro for each key) may be saved on disk and
loaded into memory to view, edit, teach, or download to the keyboard controller. Some of
these files may be included in the utility package for use in reconfiguring the keypads for
different software packages and as templates for defining completely new keypad macro
sets.
When you choose Files, a pull-down menu is displayed that provides the following
choices: Open, Close, Save, Save As, Delete, and Exit.

Open

Opens a file that contains a macro set for the keypad and loads the contents into memory.
Any macro set in memory is overwritten. Once loaded, the macro set is available to edit,
view, teach, and/or download to the keyboard controller.

Close

Clears the macro set from memory and closes the file from which they came.

Save

Copies the macro set from memory back into its original file. The original file contents are
overwritten.

Save As

it. For example, to define different sets of codes, save each set under a different name
and download the one you wish to use.

Delete

Exit

Returns to the Main Menu.

Macros Keypad Type Menu
